Süß duftende Lindenblüthe in quellender Juninacht. Eine Wonne aus meinem Gemüthe ist mir in Sinnen erwacht. Als klänge vor meinen Ohren leise das Lied vom Glück, als töne, die lange verloren, die Jugend leise zurück. Süß duftende Lindenblüthe in quellender Juninacht. Eine Wonne aus meinem Gemüthe ist mir zu Schmerzen erwacht.

Sweetly fragrant linden blossom In the burgeoning June night. A rapture from within my soul Has awakened in my senses. As if, quietly sounding, I heard The song of happiness, As if my long-lost youth Were echoing back to me. Sweetly fragrant linden blossom In the burgeoning June night. A rapture from within my soul Has, to my pain, awakened.
